In this paper, a continuous multi-product model is developed to represent the shop floor dynamics of a job shop, based on dynamic modeling and on analogies to electrical components. This approach allows the mathematical formulation of the model (state representation) and the analysis of its...

Pundits, politicians, and political scientists alike often bemoan the long delays in filling both executive and judicial vacancies. However, most political science scholarship has ignored why executives delay nomination, instead focusing on why legislatures delay confirmation. In this article, I...

This paper presents a dynamic multiregional model of labor migration in continuous time within the framework of the neoclassical economics. The model can predict the dynamics of migration flows as well as the dynamics of economic effects of migration simultaneously for host regions and source...

В статье представлена динамическая многорегиональная модель трудовой миграции в непрерывном времени, разработанная в рамках неоклассической экономической...

We formulate a theoretical model in which we postulate that if a customers' behavior is perceived as not optimal, customers will adjust this behavior based on their current satisfaction and payment equity. Furthermore, customers will also include new experiences. In our empirical study we...

This new procedure of financial audit is based on the requirement that the model should be conceived in such a way that it can reflect in a simplified and accurate manner the approached economic reality.

В статье представлена динамическая модель, позволяющая прогнозировать динамику миграционных потоков между странами выбытия и регионами притяжения мигрантов,...

This paper presents the modeling and the experimental validation of air and water solar collectors used in humidification–dehumidification (HDH) solar desalination unit. The solar desalination process is currently operating under the climatological conditions of Sfax (34 N, 10 E), Tunisia. To...

An evolutionary computation approach for optimization of power factor and power output of wind turbines is discussed. Data-mining algorithms capture the relationships among the power output, power factor, and controllable and non-controllable variables of a 1.5MW wind turbine. An evolutionary...

Nuclear Power Plant (Hungary) is developed in this paper based on first engineering principles that is able to describe the time-varying active and reactive power output of the generator. These generators are required to take part in the reactive power support of the power grid following the...
